Rail is potentially a very efficient form of transport, but must be convenient, reliable and cost-effective to compete with road and air transport. Optimal cont

This book is closely related to the energy conservation problem of rail transport systems, focusing on reducing the energy consumption of train operation. The s

This book promotes the use of mathematical optimization and operations research methods in rail transportation. The editors assembled thirteen contributions fro
